Chapter 8: Q38 P (page 355)

Identify the kinetic and thermodynamic products of the following reaction:

Short Answer

Expert verified

When a conjugated diene reacts with the electrophilic reagent, it forms two addition products through each double bond. The products are known as a 1,2-addition product (direct product) and the other is a 1,4-addition product(conjugate product).

Therefore, the more easily or direct form product is called kinetic product and the stable product is known as the thermodynamic product

Step by step solution

How reaction proceed

When a conjugated diene reacts with the electrophilic reagent, it forms two addition products through each double bond. The products are known as a 1,2-addition product (direct product) and the other is a 1,4-addition product(conjugate product).

Therefore, the more easily or direct form product is called kinetic product and the stable product is known as the thermodynamic product

02

Final answer

Kinetic product and Thermodynamic product

1,2-product is always the Kinetic product and the thermodynamic product is the product with the most highly substituted double bond
